Mass

Michelle and I talked about attending a mass while we were here in Europe touring all the famous cathedrals- so after we got done touring the Sistine chapel and the Vatican museum we went and started touring St. Peter's Basilica (where it is said that the remains of Peter are, and it is the main chapel at the Vatican, where the Pietá is, and michelangelo's beautifully architected dome and everything is just massive) so as we were touring they start shuffling a huge group of people out half of the basilica and so we as part of that group who were pushed back. We started asking why, and they said because mass was starting- we were right there and we asked if we could go and after a little wait, we were among the first to walk in and sit down and we sat through mass in Italian. It was a great experience.
